Impact GXP is equipped with a note repeat function that can help create interesting musical parts or add steady rhythm to a
performance . With Repeat on, every note you play will be repeated based on parameters described in this section.
To switch Repeat on/off, press the [On] button. Repeat is on when the button blinks in time with the tempo.
Tempo & Sync
Tempo can be set between 30 and 240 BPM when Repeat sync is set to internal clock.
Turn the [Data/Tempo] encoder until the Repeat [On] LED illuminates at the tempo you want.
To enter a specific tempo value, press and hold the [Data/Tempo] encoder. The LED buttons show the current tempo 1 digit at a
time. Wait until complete.
Enter the desired 3 digit tempo value using the numerical LED buttons. Enter values below 100 prefixed 0. The entered tempo is set
when [Data/Tempo] is released.
If Repeat is sync'ed to MIDI clock, tempo can only be set on the master clock device (such as a DAW or MIDI equipment sending MIDI
clock). Impact GXP automatically detect if MIDI clock is received and change the sync option from Internal to MIDI clock. You can set it to
only respond to Internal clock or MIDI clock in the Setup menu.
Repeat Functions
Press the [Func] button to activate the Repeat Functions. The RGB LED buttons 1-0 are now operating the repeat functions as indicated
by the silk screen printing.
Repeat Rate
Press buttons 1-5 to select repeat rates 1/4, 1/8, 1/16, 1/32 and 1/64.
To select triplets press the 2 repeat rate buttons that you want the triplet value between. For example if you want 1/4T, press [1 -
1/4]+[2 - 1/8].
AfterTouch>Velocity (Aft>Vel)
This function allows control of repeated notes velocity with the Impact GXP AfterTouch control element. When Repeat is active and this
function is on, the GXP AfterTouch assignment is no longer sent. The feature is particularly useful when playing sustaining notes.
Press [6 - Aft>Vel] to switch on/off.
Modulation Wheel>Velocity (Mod>Vel)
Works similarly to AfterTouch>Velocity but uses the modulation wheel to control velocity of repeated notes. The modulation wheel's
control assignment is not active while Modulation Wheel>Velocity and Repeat is active.
Press [7 - Mod>Vel] to switch on/off.
Accent Velocity (Acc)
An accent plays a repeated note at it's played velocity + accent velocity. The Accent Velocity range is set from -50 to +50 in increments of
10. When set to 0, the accent has no effect on velocity.
Press [8 - Acc] to activate. LED buttons 1-5, 8 and 0 now blink and are illuminated yellow. The currently selected Accent Velocity is
illuminated full yellow.
Press [1-5] to set the accent velocity from +10 to +50 as follows: [1]=+10, [2]=+20, [3]=+30 and [4]=+40 .
To set a negative Accent Velocity value, press and hold [0]+[1-5]. Example: [5]=+50 and [0]+[5]=-50.
To reset accent to 0, press [0].
The menu exit immediately upon selection.
